Meditations by Marcus Aurelius,

If anyone can refute me - show me I’m making a mistake or looking at things from the wrong perspective - I’ll gladly change. It’s the truth I’m after, and the truth never harmed anyone. What harms us is to persist in self-deceit and ignorance.
— Meditations by Marcus Aurelius,

The wise one knows himself but does not parade himself; he takes care of himself but does not exalt himself.
He rejects the without, while embracing the within.
— Tao Te Ching
